18. I always loved this line about AMrvelous Marv
Jimmy Breslin--"Having Marv Throneberry play for your team is like having Willie Sutton work for your bank."

I might have to consult the judges on your Willie Mays claim, since another Mational League city seems to have a somewhat stronger claim . . .

Gooden and Strawberry . . . makes you wonder, doesn't it? How a culture can create such tragic self destruction. Two guys who seemed to have everything going for them.
